UI/UX Redesign
The Saxion University Website Redesign aimed to improve navigation, accessibility, and visual clarity across devices. The original platform served as a key touchpoint for both prospective and current students, but its fragmented structure made it difficult to find relevant information quickly and intuitively. The goal was to create a consistent, accessible, and student-oriented experience.
To address this, I conducted heuristic evaluations, competitor benchmarking, and usability testing to uncover pain points such as unclear hierarchy, cluttered layouts, and inconsistent responsiveness. Based on these findings, I restructured the information architecture around user intent—introducing pathways like Find a study, Plan your stay, and Student life—and refined the visual hierarchy to support easier scanning and decision-making.
Key Outcomes
Reduced average task completion time by 38% in usability testing.
Improved clarity and accessibility, especially for international students.
Delivered a cohesive, responsive design aligned with WCAG 2.1 standards.
Skills & Focus Areas
Information architecture and interaction design.
Accessibility-driven design and UX writing.
Data-informed iteration and usability evaluation.
